I first submit an application on Sunday, March 30th and Google
Adsense says that it will take two to three days. Unfortunately,
sometimes it will take longer. And it's April 24th and I still don't get a word yet
Now I implemented an adcode more than a
week ago and it went to idle more than a week later. I implemented
another ad code this time after the blog post.
I read
that you have to put your ad code in an active page which I recently
did. But according to blogging element of the program, you can put your
ad code into an HTML gadget in your layout, which I did several times
and none of them (well, the recent was made on last Sunday and so far it
hasn't receive impressions yet).
What Google Adsense tell
me when I first got the early approval email that wasn't in that
approval information page is that you have to increase traffic in order
to get approved, which is exhausting.
Most people might
say it's all about the content and the traffic, although I read most of
the posts in the Google Groups indicating that Adsense approve
blog/sites that contain less content or less traffic.
So maybe I have to boost traffic in a lot of ways or try to get Adsense approve in a quick pace.

Google Adwords: A Very Risky Move for Me When I Have Less Money
Okay first of all, I heard so many times throughout the week that Google Adwords is free. But when I tried to get into an account, it require me to create an 'expensive' ad. Really, I don't have a few hundred dollars. I tried to make money on my other blog, but I don't it seems like it had to do with traffic, which I'm not good of, or it seems like Google Adsense is taking a long time to approve.
First of all, many people have said that Google Adwords has a free keyword planner. Yes it has, but I'm unable to get into there because, as I said before, I have to create an expensive ad. I tried different keyword tools. Unfortunately, none of them were free. I mean totally free. I thought Traffic Travis was a totally free software, but nope it's not. (Traffic Travis and other keyword searches are for free; I just want a 'totally' free tool to boost my traffic)
Because it require creating an expensive ad, I originally not gonna try it because it cost me my whole entire bank account. I tried different ways throughout the week on making money online. Thought the morning, I stumble around stocks because stocks give you a lot of money, but it's also a big risk. I tried to figure out how to buy a stock until I gave up.
So this afternoon, I take the big risk in Google Adwords. I put ten cents in my daily budget and fill out the rest of the information and that's it. After that, I paused the ad unit and the campaigns and move on to the keyword planner.
The keyword planner is nice. They give you how much will you bid in order to increase your clicks. Since I have limited budget, I tried to bid ten cents and the keywords (which I cannot name) gets around about 1.70 to 2.00 clicks. And I believe that those clicks are not millions or thousands in numbers. They can either very few hundreds or clicks. Also with that limit bid, the ad won't appear in the ad section of Google in real time. It might take you a little longer or very long to get your ad appeared.
But there's something shocking: I have to get my ad approved. Yep, just like Google Adsense with my other blog, I have to get my ad approved with Adwords. That's disappointing. And although it might take in one business day, it might take you longer.
Later, I have to cancel my ad units and campaigns. Maybe I have to exit out of Google Adwords and stick this, blogging on The Raspberry. So I have to keep trying to find a way to make money online until Adsense sends me a miracle email.

Stocks Are Not For Me...For Now
This is day five of me..trying to find ways of making money online. Now this morning I started to wonder if stocks work for me. I mean I tried watching a few videos about how to buy stocks. I don't even have a hundred dollars. So I try to find ways to buy low risk stocks. I even download the MoneyPaper application from TD Ameritrade. But this is hopeless, this information is really overwhelming.
Even more hopeless was that I'm trying to find ways to transfer money from stock to my bank account, which I obviously cannot find. For one moment, I thought Certificate of Deposit was related to stock. Nope, it requires you to have a lots of money and deposit into and leave the money there and you grow it. Unfortunately for me, I don't have that kind of money.
There are two reasons why buying stocks is not for me:
1. Many people in online articles suggest that you should have over hundred dollars to invest in, which I don't have.
2. I can't find a search result that has to do with transferring stock money into my bank account.
So stocks are not a good idea for me.

Trying To Find Ways on Making Money...Still Trying
So it's 10:07pm eastern standard time as I'm writing this. And I spent the last three days looking for way on how to make money. Because there's a sign in my head thinking that I won't be able to have my AdSense approval on my other blogs, I try google search ways on how to make money online.
Most of the ways suggest that surveys are the recommended ones. I try thinking on MySurvey.com last Sunday but at the same time I feel skeptical about it and I still am. MySurvey.com is a reward service, not a site where you can be paid for money by solving surveys. You had to get over one thousands points to get...ten dollars. It's really long, complicated, and tough to get there. Yesterday after reading the negative reviews, I decided to not go there.
Since then, I tried Amazon Associates, which this blog, The Raspberry, was originally built with. But this doesn't work, it had to do with traffic, which is the most hardest thing to build for me.
I'm still trying. I wanna talk about more of it tomorrow.

Preview: My Trip To The Dentist
Today, I go to the dentist. Every year, we go to the dentist. I guess since maybe 2009, we have already been to Dr. Allen's office several times. It's now 10:00pm at night (eastern standard time), so I'm probably gonna talk about it tomorrow.

Christian Books: "Heaven is for Real" by Todd Burpo
If you have seen the movie but didn't read the book or you planned to see the movie but didn't read the book, I probably recommend that you read the book. It's a good read.

Heaven Is for Real is the true story of the four-year old son of a small town Nebraska pastor who during emergency surgery slips from consciousness and enters heaven. He survives and begins talking about being able to look down and see the doctor operating and his dad praying in the waiting room. The family didn't know what to believe but soon the evidence was clear.Read more at Amazon.com:
Business Books: Flash Boys: A Wall Street Revolt
From Amazon.com:
Here's more at Amazon.com:Four years after his #1 bestseller The Big Short, Michael Lewis returns to Wall Street to report on a high-tech predator stalking the equity markets.
Flash Boys is about a small group of Wall Street guys who figure out that the U.S. stock market has been rigged for the benefit of insiders and that, post–financial crisis, the markets have become not more free but less, and more controlled by the big Wall Street banks. Working at different firms, they come to this realization separately; but after they discover one another, the flash boys band together and set out to reform the financial markets. This they do by creating an exchange in which high-frequency trading—source of the most intractable problems—will have no advantage whatsoever.
